Kia Ora Club Members The Football World Cup story was again in the headlines this week with the Congrats parade through the streets of Wellington. As often quoted in the media - its a great time to be a football fan in NZ.
Don't forget to get along to Red Sox Idol on Saturday night - and check out the NEW cellphone number for the Courtesy Van. You can text or call to make your bookings from 12 noon on the Saturday for trips to/from the Clubrooms. Ticket just $10
The Club AGM is usually scheduled for the first Thursday in October - just 10 weeks away. As always your Club needs fresh blood for its Committee and there are some key positions likely to be available. As well as helping your Club this can also be a great personal development opportunity. Give it some thought and if not for you, then encourage someone who you think might be of value and be interested.
The Club Members Draw last Saturday night was again NOT won - Richard Day from the Wolves Mens Football Team was absent, so it jackpots this week to $400. Remember you can win just by being at the clubrooms from 6-7pm !
The attendance at your Clubrooms last Saturday night was obviously affected by the weather and the All Blacks test match in Wellington and a nasty dose of apathy which may be doing the rounds, so heres hoping that the massive Club Membership Draw combined with Red Sox Idol will have your place rocking this Saturday night - you CAN make a difference just by being there and bringing your team mates.
Your Club may be having an American Football team join up !! Watch this space for more details but if you are intersted in perhaps playing in their season which runs fom September to December send an email to: usafooty@redsox.co.nz
Ray Hart has until recently been playing football with the 1929s since their inception, last Century, including having his boys playing alongside him and he also has an extensive involvement in motorsport particularly karting. A tribute dinner is being held for Ray by the local motorsport community on Saturday 7 August at the Silks Lounge at Awapuni Racecourse and club members who know Ray and his family are invited to attend - for more details please contact Sam MacNeill on 027 293 5534 or send an email to: trs19@xtra.co.nz
